How does the Italian medical system work?

milan? brrrrrrr.........

good luck!

Dear Sushi Doctor,
you can work as a doctor without a residency or a specialty in Italy.
About 50-60% of graduates get a residency for specialization. That's also the percentage of residency spots vs. number of graduates.
Milan has 3 airports, all of which are excellently linked to the city by bus, trains or fixed-fare cabs.

Thank you DrHP.  :-*

I have two more questions if you don't mind.

1)Where do doctors without specialization work? Can they set up their own clinics like family doctors?

2)How easy is to get a job without specialization in Italy as a non-EU citizen? Do you have any non-EU classmates (especially from USA or Canada)?

Are you also from Milan? Where did you go to medical school?

How easy is to get a job without specialization in Italy as a non-EU citizen?

in my opinion it's just the same! i had many foreign classmates, none from usa or canada ( from palestine, giordania, for ex.). anyway, they work now without problems.

Hi Stefania again 

Where do your non-Eu classmates work? What do they do? And how much money do they make?

maybe i don't understand the meaning of your question.
they work and they earn just like me or anyone else.
